The last time he was real drunk. The time before this one. It was his birthday. There was a girl he'd been dating. Then it ended, not on the account of himself, but more she wasn't feeling it. She said.

His friends and took him out, and they sang karaoke and...

He had to stop now at a gas station. This was point where the drive back from Ann Arbor, met up with how he took from home.  He always stopped here, whatever way he was coming. 

He still brought his phone in the gas station, a memory of it or...
